Men's Soccer Hosting Robert Morris for Senior Day on Sunday

LORETTO, PA- Saint Francis men's soccer will honor six seniors before a pivotal match against Robert Morris on Sunday at 1 p.m. in the regular-season finale for both teams. 

The Red Flash will honor #6 Jack Webber (Bernville, Pa./Tulpehocken), #18 Andrew Garcia (Sicklerville, N.J./Timber Creek Regional), #19 Andrew Hajec (Corry, Pa./Corry), #20 Conner Rezende (Davie, Fla. /University School at Nova Southeastern), #22 Pablo Medina (Monterrey, Mexico/IMG Academies), and #29 Calvin Rezende (Davie, Fla. /University School at Nova Southeastern) in a pre-match ceremony.

WHAT'S AT STAKE
The NEC playoff teams have been set with LIU Brooklyn clinching the regular-season title after a 6-0 start in NEC play and will play host next weekend. Robert Morris, Saint Francis and, St. Francis-Brooklyn have also clinched spots in the four-team playoff.
  • -With a victory, SFU clinches the two-seed and would play either St. Francis-Brooklyn (if it beats LIU on Sunday) or would re-match Robert Morris. 
  • -With a draw, SFU would be the three-seed and would re-match Robert Morris if LIU earns a win or draw against SFBK, if SFBK wins, SFU is the four-seed and would face the host Blackbirds
  • -With a loss, SFU is the three-seed if LIU defeats SFBK. If SFBK earns a win or a draw, SFU would be the four-seed.
